Ruqyah Protocol
Magic in the Stomach
Ruqyah protocol to break magic given through food or drink
✦ ✦ ✦
Raqi Faisal Ahmed Sabit
Al Quranic Ruqyah Healing Center
Introduction — who this protocol is for
Sometimes sihr (magic) is made to enter the body through food or drink — this is called 'magic of eating and drinking'. In this protocol, verses of the Qur'an in which the word 'stomach/belly' (butun) appears are recited in sequence — in the context of creation, provision, punishment and deliverance — so that whatever has been put into the stomach may dissolve, burst and have its knots undone, and come out by the power of Allah. Not every stomach problem is caused by magic — most are due to medical causes. However, if it matches other signs, continue this protocol consistently.
Signs for which this protocol may help
- Unusual stomach pain, bloating or a feeling of heaviness after eating, for which no medical cause can be found
- Changes in the body beginning right after taking food or drink given by a particular person
- A feeling of movement inside the stomach, or an uncomfortable feeling as if something is stuck
- Nausea or loss of appetite together with other signs of magic
Important note: Most of the signs above can also have ordinary physical or psychological causes. So first get the necessary medical tests and treatment. Ruqyah runs alongside medical treatment, not as a replacement for it. Do not conclude with certainty that someone is affected by sihr or jinn just because a sign matches.
Translation of the meanings of the Qur'an: Saheeh International (via quran.com).

Verses of creation and blessings related to the stomach (butun)
Recite each verse (ayah) once, in sequence. Recite with the belief that complete control over whatever is in the stomach is in the hands of Allah.
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَكْتُمُونَ مَا أَنزَلَ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْكِتٰبِ وَيَشْتَرُونَ بِهِۦ ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا ۙ أُولٰئِكَ مَا يَأْكُلُونَ فِى بُطُونِهِمْ إِلَّا النَّارَ وَلَا يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيٰمَةِ وَلَا يُزَكِّيهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ۱۷۴
Indeed, they who conceal what Allāh has sent down of the Book and exchange it for a small price - those consume not into their bellies except the Fire. And Allāh will not speak to them on the Day of Resurrection, nor will He purify them. And they will have a painful punishment.

Is that [i.e., Paradise] a better accommodation or the tree of zaqqūm? Indeed, We have made it a torment for the wrongdoers.

He created you from one soul. Then He made from it its mate, and He produced for you from the grazing livestock eight mates. He creates you in the wombs of your mothers, creation after creation, within three darknesses. That is Allāh, your Lord; to Him belongs dominion. There is no deity except Him, so how are you averted?
Recite: 1 time
Intention: Remembering Allah's power of creation even in the darkness of the womb, and believing that the hidden sihr in the stomach is not unknown to Him
وَهُوَ الَّذِى كَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ عَنْهُم بِبَطْنِ مَكَّةَ مِن بَعْدِ أَنْ أَظْفَرَكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا ۲۴

And [recall] when Moses prayed for water for his people, so We said, "Strike with your staff the stone."

And when they saw it as a cloud approaching their valleys, they said, "This is a cloud bringing us rain!"

📌 Self-ruqyah guideline
Consistency is the key. A little every day, but regularly.
Method — step by step
- Make wudu, then sit somewhere quiet facing the qiblah. Keep your phone away.
- Make the intention: I am asking Allah for healing through the Words of Allah; the Words have no power of their own — the power belongs to Allah.
- Recite the opening duas (Chapter 1).
- Then recite the verses (ayahs) in order. While reciting, blow lightly into both palms and pass your hands over the affected area.
- Recite each verse as many times as stated in the instruction box below it — there is no need to do more or less.
- In between, make dua wholeheartedly in your own language for 15 minutes. If tears come, do not hold them back.
- At the end, recite the closing surahs and duas, then blow lightly into the water.
- Continue every day for at least 40 days. If you miss some days, do not lose heart — simply start again.
